The Princess of Wales favourite dresses are in the LK Bennett sale – at up to 60% off

We knew the Princess of Wales was a fan of LK Bennett, but we didn’t quite know how much until she re-wore her favourite wide-brimmed hat from the brand at Sunday’s Wimbledon final. Reminding us that Kate has supported LK Bennett in public an incredible 86 times.

Founded in Wimbledon Village back in 1990 by Linda Bennett, today LK Bennett remains synonymous with polished occasionwear and elevated work tailoring. Royal-approved style does comes at a cost, with dresses costing from £400, so when we saw LK Bennett was on sale, we felt duty-bound to look at what was on offer and share it with you, and frankly, we got a little bit over-excited.

Their most elegant dresses, from knitted slim styles, elegant ruffled fronted midis and a gorgeous tiered Champagne-lace party dress, as well as slingback ballerinas and a precisely cut black pencil skirt are all in the sale in a wide range of sizes at 50% off or more. Making now the perfect time to invest in something special from the brand.

These are the kind of buys that will become your reliable occasion pieces for years ahead, things to love and rewear just as the Princess of Wales does. Or in the case of the chic black skirt and dress, are spot on fashion workwear updates that lean into the return to pared-back chic this autumn.

We’ve selected 10 great dresses and accessories here and you needn’t worry about missing out on the best of the sale selection as LK Bennett has been dropping new pieces daily and, in fact, updated its sale as I was writing this, meaning there are still many stunning styles to pick up.

Whichever dress, shoe or skirt has your name on it, your wardrobe will be more long-term useful for it, your bank balance more stable and we’re pretty sure Kate would give her Royal seal of style approval, too.
